8 Richardson Street

The best of Montpelier - an in-town home in sight of the golden dome, perched high on a sunny hill with beautiful long-distance views yet only a stone's throw to the State House lawn, downtown, Hubbard Park, and the Saturday farmer's market. This 1918 house (on the Historical Register) has been TOTALLY renovated and updated - every inch of it! The result is incredible and gorgeous - the open and airy feel of a modern home with the best of yesteryear lovingly maintained. The original woodwork has been hand-sanded and polished including the striking stairwell with window seat, all the floors, and the solid wood front door. All new windows showcase tree-top views and all-day sunshine. The kitchen is a chef's dream with lovely quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and Bosch appliances. A spacious dining room has a bay window overlooking the town and sliding glass doors to the deck and yard. A wood stove and custom built-in bookshelf & cabinet make the living room a cozy place to watch the snow fall in the winter. The primary bedroom has a custom cabinet closet and a gorgeous bathroom with a steam shower and marble tile. The original stained-glass window remains a centerpiece and a suncatcher. Two bedrooms and a full bath with jetted tub and laundry are also on the 2nd floor. The attic is perfect for an office, gym, or studio. The Post and Beam shed is a great bonus. All new in the last 6 months: roof, heating, electric, plumbing...everything!
